DynaCT angiography for the diagnosis of bilateral bow hunter's syndrome.
Article in Interventional neuroradiology : journal of peritherapeutic neuroradiology, surgical procedures and related neurosciences, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
We herein present a rare case of bilateral positional vertebrobasilar insufficiency secondary to mechanical obstruction of the V2 segment of the vertebral artery in a 71-year-old patient presenting with vertigo, occipital headache, tremors and respiratory irregularities. Two-dimensional digital subtraction angiography is the traditional diagnostic imaging standard but does not capture any peri-vascular bony or soft tissue abnormalities that are important to understand the three-dimensional pathophysiology. Intra-procedural cone-beam computed tomography (CT) is an increasingly used diagnostic adjunct, available in most modern angiographic suites that allows for the three-dimensional visualization of the vasculature as well as CT-like soft tissue visualization of its surrounding anatomy. In this case, we report the additional value of three-dimensional reconstructed cone-beam CT angiographic imaging that led to the successful diagnosis of bilateral positional vertebrobasilar disease. The patient subsequently received C4-C6 cervical decompression and fusion and remains symptom free at 1 year follow-up.
